Stack Trunks of 5Gbps Ports on the x530L-10GHXm or x530L-
18GHXm Switch
The 10Gbps SFP+ ports on the x530L-10GHXm or x530L-18GHXm switch
are not the only ports you can use for a trunk of a stack. If you prefer to
use the 10Gbps ports for other functions, you can use the 5Gbps ports for
the trunk instead. You can use all 5Gbps ports per switch for a trunk. As
with a trunk based on 10 Gbps SFP+ ports, the more 5Gbps ports a trunk
has, the greater its bandwidth and resiliency.
The rules and guidelines for a stack trunk of 5Gbps ports are similar to
stack trunks of 10Gbps ports.

Stacks can have up to eight switches.

You can use 5Gbps ports for the trunk:
– x530L-10GHXm ports 1 - 8
– x530L-18GHXm ports 1 - 16

The trunk can have from two or all 5Gbps ports per switch.

A stack of x530L-10GHXm switches with a trunk of 5Gbps ports
cannot contain other x530L switches because the other models do
not have 5Gbps ports. To build a stack containing x530L-10GHXm
or x530L-18GHXm switches and other x530L switches, you have
to use 10Gbps ports for the trunk.

When possible, you should use the same ports on all the switches
of a stack. This is not a requirement, but it can make managing and
troubleshooting a stack easier. For example, you might designate
ports 5 and 6 and a stack of x530L-10GHXm switches to be the
stacking ports.

You designate the stack ports with the STACKPORT command.

Once ports are designated as trunk ports, you cannot view of
change their parameter settings.
